At the start of 2020 I had an unfortunate case of Bells Palsy and have and had at the time a full body case of psoriasis (face, scalp, arms, body, legs etc). I was prescribed and incredibly strong oral tablet steroid for the Bells Palsy which not only worked but also had an incredible affect on my Psoraisis. Following the week of tablets I was almost completely free of psoraisis!
I know it’s a unique cross over but wonder if anyone else has had a similar experience?

Oh dear. Sounds a tricky time! I hope you're okay and much better.
Oral steroids do treat psoriasis, so the outcome is to be expected. They're not used typically, however, as (as you probably know) they have quite significant side effects and a high impact on various body systems long term.
